Professor Tom Shippey is best known for his books 'The Road to Middle-earth' and 'J. R.R. Tolkien. Author of the Century'. Yet they are not the only contributions of his to Tolkien studies. Over the years, he has written and lectured widely on Tolkien-related topics. Unfortunately, many of his essays, though still topical, are no longer available. The current volume unites for the first time a selection of his older essays together with some new, as yet unpublished articles. | Roots and Branches by Tom Shippey, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
